Amazon Simple Workflow Service Markers

You can use markers to record events in the workflow execution history for application
specific purposes.
Markers are useful when you want to record custom information to help implement decider
logic. For example, you
could use a marker to count the number of loops in a recursive workflow.

In the following example, the decider completes a decision task and responds with
a
RespondDecisionTaskCompleted action that contains a RecordMarker decision.

Recording a marker doesn't, by itself, initiate a decision task. To prevent the workflow
execution from
becoming stuck, something must occur that continues the execution of the workflow.
For example, this might include
the decider scheduling another activity task, the workflow execution receiving a signal,
or a previously scheduled
activity task completing.
